Word glitching table headers to look like wingdings
Hi, we've had one user report that our table header text occasionally glitches to look like corrupted wingdings:
I cannot replicate this issue and don't fully know at what stage of document creation it happened but will update with any extra info they provide.
Any help would be appreciated!

Which font is used for table headers in the affected document? See if (re-)installing the font on the computer helps. Microsoft-provided fonts such as Aptos can be downloaded from Microsoft.
P.S. I specifically mention the Aptos font here, because it has been reported that it may not be correctly interpreted unless you take action to install it locally (by default, Aptos is a so-called cloud font which isn't necessarily present in the Fonts folder on Windows).

Hi, the font is a google font called Poppins and has been rolled out to all machines in the company. I can't replicate the issue and it's only happened to a few people from what I can tell, their theory is it's to do with opening it in the browser version?
